I was tagged to tell seven weird or random things about me a long time ago. Awhile ago I was tagged again, to tell something else. Oh boy, don't know why it took that long time to answer both of them but finally some weird, some random and some extras.1.Our family is very family-orientated family. We do a lot of things together. Someone may think we spend a bit too much time together. But it's our way of living and we are enjoying it in that way.

2. So far I have been living in 4 countries ( Finland, Switzerland, Israel,Lebanon), 10 cities and 19 apartments. To be continue...

3. I hate running. For me the first step is always the most difficult one. Once took that it's fine. I do love the result of running, a better condition. Funny or weird thing is I'm running at least five times a week during the school year.

4. I was born on 13th ...and Friday. I have heard about that a few times.

5. I was interviewed live a local radiostation when I started a new job ( about hundred of years ago). There was also my photo on a local newspaper the next day.I thought that was weird.Other times followed but I never got used to it. Same thing with internet. I try my best to show you who's behind this blog. Maybe one day you see my face straight.

6. I can't stand mess. I wash our floors at least five times a week.I had to because otherwise the floors will cover with dust. Every evening I tidy up the apartment before relaxing. That's not a big deal. But I do let the kids make a huge mess around the house and play in every room. I'm not that bad.

7. I love sunshine and I can stand the heat. I can easily spend a day at the beach. The kids are the same which is luck because being out here means to be out at the beach. No parks.

8. Languages. I'm not a professional speaker or writer in any language. Even my Finnish has suffered while living abroad. At school I studied Finnish, Swedish, English,German and Russian. The three first ones are the languages I'm using most. Still understand German and Russian but need to use a lot more to get back the basic level. I know words in Hebrew and Arabic but very far to be a fluent speaker, being a reader or writer, maybe never. I would love to learn some French and Italian. Most proud I'm of knowing the dialect of Swedish, which is used by Swedish speaking people living in Ostrobothnia, Finland.

9. My favourite snack:10. Five things on to do list:

enjoying

relaxing

having fun

sleeping

laughing

I'm not tagging anyone to write. But if you want to take on the challenge , I would love to read about you.
